Volvo Cars Poole Tech celebrates 20 years

Adrian Poore, Senior Technician at Volvo Cars Poole, celebrated 20 years’ service with the Volvo brand this month and was presented with a long service award at the dealership.
Adrian’s career kicked off at Page Volvo in 1996 where his love for
the Scandinavian brand began. Over the next 20 years, with the Volvo
franchise changing ownership locally, Adrian has remained loyal to the
brand through to his current employment at Volvo Cars Poole.
So why stick with one brand for two decades? Adrian says it’s all
about the manufacture’s passion: “Volvo’s genuine passion for what they
do filters down through to their dealerships. I have had the pleasure
and privilege of seeing the brand grow and have been able to grow with
it. From way back working on the P1800, 140s, 340 CVTs to latest models
such as the new XC90 T8, Hybrids and Polestar range why wouldn’t you
stick with it?
“The biggest change I have witnessed is the technology. Seeing the
first cassette player head unit to now watching a vehicle park itself.
The way the technology has progressed is phenomenal if not slightly
scary! I am genuinely excited for all the new gizmos and gadgets Volvo
has coming out. Add to that the new ownership of Volvo Cars Poole under
Ocean Automotive and our all new premises and it is as good a time as
ever to be working for the brand.”
